@Casey Caton Hey! I am a local investor and Agent in the area. I just do Washington and Benton county, and always love talking to investors. If I get a bigger picture of what you are looking to buy here (what makes good financial sense) then I can be on the look out for you!

Hey Jacob! Love the family business! As far as next step I would say:

1. Determine your goal. 2. Analysis your current situation. 3. map out a process to get your goal.  

 It seems like you are caring more for a buy and hold strategy instead of fix and flip. So, I would suggest either refinancing your loan, or taking a Heloc off of the property you own and get that equity to work for you in another property. So, this would be the BRRR method. You need to analysis to see if the cash flow on your current property makes sense, and also analysis how much equity you can pull with a Heloc. I am a local agent. Private message me and I can help you out with the analysis part. Then, do the fun part: find the next awesome deal!

I have done whole sell with Waco Title before. Most will work with you, but you might have to assign the contract instead of doing a back to back closing.

@Mike Castellow Hit me up and I will take you out to Coffee and we can talk shop! Also, we will have a BP meet up at the end of August, if you can be there.

Mike, @Dustin Davis is correct. Northwest Arkansas is hard to invest in. It is not impossible, but it is hard work. Prices are high, and, as an agent, I often have over list price cash offers on property that really isn't worth it. All the amenities you are seeking, we have. I do believe NWA is a great investment opportunity, but you must make sure you buy right and don't get discouraged.
